Five Pack by Axel Schmid for Ingo Maurer consists of five reflectors that look like bowls stacked on top of one another. When all five bowls are pushed neatly together, the light is directed downwards. However, if you pull the uppermost reflector upwards at the handle, the five bowls “fan out”. The light is then able to escape sideways between them. With the help of the handle, the user can adapt and adjust the lighting mood through infinite variations.
The inside of the top four reflectors is painted yellow. The bottom one is white on the inside. At the openings around the bowls, yellow-white light shines on the outside of the bowl below.
